Install kernel-patch-2.2.10-m68k and apply the patch (gcc295x), the others,
esp m68klinux, should be allready applied or be available in the
kernel-patch archive.

should, yes. Did you try with gcc272? Does it work with gcc272?

That one is brandnew, AFAIK. I did not try it yet, but didn´t Jes say:
 This version is likely to be buggy, but at least I think it is better
 than the horrible 2.3.28 release.
when he announced it? So why do you wonder, when you hit a problem?

Well, send this to the correct mailing list, the kernel list, aka
<linux-m68k@lists.linux-m68k.org>.
debian-68k is for problems with debian on m68k machines. 
linux-m68k is for problems with linux on m68k machines, especially with the
kernel. Most of the kernel hackers _only_ read linux-m68k, many of them dont
even use debian. Maybe there is allready a patch for your problem? And if
not, maybe you send a patch...

PS can somebody check this for undestandibility? I wrote this before today
and was misundestood ,it seems. What am I saying wrong?
